Marc Cohn - Bits & Pieces Lyrics
Sleepless nights and senseless fightsMany that Ive knownAre proportional to the desperate hoursSpent on the telephoneNow Im sitting here trying to get through to godScreaming in a microphoneSinging, watch out for me cause its plain to seeI cant make it on my ownWhen all I got are them[chorus]Bits and piecesOf my sorrow and regretA memorial for loversAnd a covenance they respectAnd though here on this young mans faceA tear trace you detectWell its only for the bits and piecesThat I can recollect[bridge]I had to let you knowSo youll try to understandIt wasnt a scheme it was a foolish dreamThat didnt work out like I plannedJust didnt work out like I plannedHey tell me that you understand, yeahSo give me back my musicAnd those off-stage whispered cuesCause I got me a ten song repitoireHey it includes a sad song tooSo when you see me serenading the darknessYoull know exactly who Im singing toAnd those tears are only for the yearsI may just spend with youBut all Im left with isBits and pieces...
